This is the third update the company has made since the initial announcement that it suffered a data leak on October 23. Most notably, credit card information belonging to about 2,800 online shop users has been potentially compromised, including the card holder\u2019s name, full credit card number, expiration date, and security code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the most recent update, Good Smile Company confirmed several instances of unauthorized access to the website between 3:00 PM on October 19, and just before 11:00 PM on October 22. The company\u2019s online shop was consequently closed off on October 23. While a certain cause of the data leak still hasn\u2019t been determined, the company believes it occurred due to a third party exploiting a vulnerability in the website\u2019s system, which gave them unauthorized access to administrative privileges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One important thing to note is that the data leak is not related to the recently reported PHP vulnerability issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Good Smile Company has individually contacted each of the affected 2,800 customers via email with additional information. This includes 384 customers who placed an order using credit card payment, 185 customers who changed their credit card information after preordering an item, those who attempted to pay by credit card but were unable to complete the payment, and those who logged into the site and added items into their shopping cart without going through with their payment (during the previously specified time frame of the security breach).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regarding those who just added items into their shopping cart, it is very unlikely that their personal information has been compromised. However, due to technical limitations which make the system difficult to distinguish between \u201cthose who attempted to pay by credit card but were unable to complete the payment\u201d and \u201cthose who logged into the site and added items into their shopping cart without proceeding with their payment,\u201d everyone who potentially falls in either of these two categories has received an email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the full leakage of customers\u2019 credit cards, Good Smile Company also warns of the possibility that over 400,000 credit cards have been partially leaked in the cyberattack (excluding duplicates). Furthermore, 7,673 customers who placed orders between 10:20 PM and 11:00 PM on October 22 are suspected to have had their personal information compromised, including full names, addresses and phone numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Good Smile Company, the matter has already been reported to the Personal Information Protection Commission, and the company is currently in the process of contacting individual credit card companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Good Smile Company official online store will be reopened once the website\u2019s security has been ensured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Related:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/capcom-reports-large-scale-data-breach-affecting-approximately-11-77-million-capcom-id-accounts-no-credit-card-information-compromised\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Capcom reports large-scale data breach affecting approximately 11.77 million \u201cCapcom ID\u201d accounts.
